It is possible for Miis to get back together, depending on their relationship status. The procedure is similar to the way a Mii would confess their love, with a few differences. As melancholic music plays, one of the ex-lovers will admit they cannot stop thinking about the past with their lover, and requests that they get back together. Should the player agree, the player will relay their message to said love interest. The love interest will then ask in surprise of they really said that, before deciding they will think about it.

BREAKUP

A breakup taking place in Tomodachi Life.

A breakup is when two Miis that are sweethearts or spouses end their romantic relationship with each other. Afterwards, the Miis will show up as each other's "Ex" in their relationships.

Tomodachi Collection

"I want to break up with [Mii]."
— Mii, Tomodachi Collection

Breakups first occur in Tomodachi Collection, when a Mii's relationship with a sweetheart is low. The Mii states, "things haven't been going so well with [islander]" the player can then decide whether the Mii should move on or try to work things out.

If the player decides that the Mii should move on, it triggers a cutscene in the cafe where the Mii breaks up with their sweetheart by saying they are tired and want to be friends again, while leaving both Miis depressed.

If the player decides that the Mii should try to work things out, it will trigger a cutscene in the other Mii's apartment where they stand facing each other with the lights off and a clock ticking in the background. If the Mii succeeds, then they will hold their hand out as the lights turn on and suggest trying again as the other Mii responds in agreement. If it fails, the couple will crouch down, look at the floor, clutch the sides of their heads with both hands and rapidly shake their heads as a gong sounds. This results in the couple having to break up.

Tomodachi Life

"Things aren’t going so great with me and [sweetheart/spouse]..."
— Mii, Tomodachi Life (US)

Message shown after a breakup.

Breakups are used once again in Tomodachi Life, functioning almost exactly as its predecessor. In this game, however, the Mii breaking up will say their feelings have changed, instead of they are tired.

In Life, it is also possible for a Mii to confess their love to a Mii who is already dating. The dating Mii may accept the confession and leave their sweetheart/spouse for the confessor, with said sweetheart/spouse gaining a sadness meter. This event is quite rare and usually only happens when the sweethearts have low relationship statuses with each other.

If a married couple breaks up, then upon visiting them, they will be in a depression. The one who broke up says, "Maybe we aren't meant to be together. At least not right now. Breaking up with your sweetheart is really painful." The other says, "My heart has hurt since we broke up. It's not heartburn either. What am I supposed to do now? I feel so lost."

If the two Miis were married, their house at Mii Homes will be completely demolished, leaving a vacant spot in its place until a new married couple fills it.

Miis will not break up/divorce or fight if they have a baby in their home, making babies the only surefire method of preventing breakups.

Breakup Flashbacks

A Mii remembering the memories their sweetheart had together.

In addition, if the player goes to the apartment of the Mii that was broken up with and tap the icon, they will say, "Will I ever recapture those happy times again?" and then displaying a cutscene showing moments when the two Miis were together. There are two versions of the flashback, a long version and a short version. The long version occurs if a Mii's sweetheart leaves for another Mii. The short version is if the two Miis that were sweethearts broke up after failing to work things out. A slightly even shorter version is played if the player tells the Mii to simply move on.

The first scene is on the beach. It starts with the Mii running away from its sweetheart as they chase each other along the water, then they splash each other. The male Mii wears swim trunks and the female Mii wears a bikini. This is followed by the "tropical beach" photo of them.

The next scene is the sweethearts playing tennis. After a few hits, the Mii hits the ball out into the distance, leaving its sweetheart to giggle as it looks on confused. This is followed by the "Bokeh" photo of them.

The next few scenes take place in the Mii's apartment. The first is the two in a back-and-forth conversation saying they love each other. This is followed by the "holiday" photo of them; then the Mii tells a joke to the sweetheart using a random item, but the sweetheart wasn't listening.

The last scenes take place shortly after the breakup, first the Mii playing tennis alone before giving up. This is then followed by the "cherry blossoms" photo of the Miis. The final scene of the flashback is the Mii sitting on the beach, staring into the sunset alone. If the player chooses to have the Mii move on without working it out, the tennis scenes are absent as well as the photos.

Another version of the flashback can occur after the main flashback is played. Upon tapping the Mii's thought bubble, it will say, "I can't stop thinking about all those happy times we had..." and the "I love you" scene of the flashback will play, but with the Miis repeatedly adding "really" to their conversation. Alternatively, the joke scene may play instead, telling several jokes until the player leaves.

Cutscene Break Up

Another way for two Miis to break up is by going to either the fountain, park, cafe, tower, beach or amusement park when a couple is currently there.

Upon entering either of these places, there's a chance a cut-scene will automatically begin with the couple sitting together. The first Mii will say "We had a good run. Thanks for everything." Then, the other Mii will say "No, thank you." Next, a text box will read "[Mii 1] and [Mii 2] are back to being just friends."

Afterwards, the view fades to white and the Player is taken back to the island. If this positive breakup occurs, neither of the two Mii's will be depressed or listed in Relationship as "Ex-Sweetheart". This type of breakup can be avoided altogether if the player does not enter any of the hangout areas or only enter the areas when a couple is not there at all. If one or both of the Miis were children and made into adults with an Age-o-matic, it will automatically wear off after the married couple breaks up.

Getting Back Together

It is possible for Miis to get back together, depending on their relationship status. The procedure is similar to the way a Mii would confess their love, with a few differences. As melancholic music plays, one of the ex-lovers will admit they can't stop thinking about the past with their lover, and requests that they get back together. If the Player agress, the Mii will relay their message to said love interest. The love interest will then ask in surprise of they really said that, before deciding they will think about it.

The scene that follows will always take place on the beach, and has a procedure similar to a confession. The Mii will ask if they want to give the relationship another try, and if it all goes well, the two Miis will return to being sweethearts, and, if they were married, their house will be rebuilt. Any Age-o-matics that were used on either Mii will also return.

If not, the Mii will sink to the ground sadly as it becomes sad and heartbroken, but they will not gain sadness and their relationship will not decrease. Sometimes the ex-love interest would immediately refuse and ask the player to ask the Mii if things are going okay, putting the Mii in sadness. It is possible for an ex-sweetheart to express this feeling even after their former love interest became involved with a different sweetheart.

Trivia

  • Since breakup requests are random and in some cases unpredictable, with no way to back out once the player taps the Mii's thought bubble, players should check the Mii's Relationships with either the L or R buttons if they want to prevent a breakup. In most cases, if the relationship level is very low (such as the relationship level being displayed with "Not getting along") by a Mii that is not in fight, the player should return to the island and save immediately, then re-enter and select "Work it out". If the couple fails to resolve things, the player should close the game entirely without saving, then re-enter and try again.
  • It is entirely possible that a couple with low relationship levels will divorce off-screen while the game isn't powered on, without any orange problems indicating their desire for a divorce beforehand. The day following the divorce, only one Mii will be depressed about the divorce.
  • If the Mii's ex-sweetheart disappears from its relationship list, they will completely forget each other and have to be re-introduced.
  • The music over the cafe's radio during breakup cutscene is a somber, lower-key remix of the theme from Compatibility Tester when the Player gets an 80-89% rating.
  • If a Mii wants to reconcile, the background music played is a slower violin/harp remix of gentle bell theme played when they have feelings for someone.
  • Sometimes, when a Mii breaks up with their sweetheart, they will not get depressed if they get into a fight or if they get sick.
  • Sometimes, when a Mii takes a photo, they might capture a person going out with their current sweetheart at the café, and the ex-sweetheart will be sad and jealous.
  • On extremely rare occasions, it is possible that a Mii will leave the island autonomously after an autonomous breakup without player interference.
  • When two married Miis have a huge fight with each other, they could break up autonomously if not sorted out.
